User Reviews for Kyoto Japanese Restaurant

We arrived on a Friday night at just after 5:30PM, in order to avoid the evening rush. Despite not having a reservation they were able to seat us right away and gave us plenty of time to enjoy our dinner. Our meal consisted of sushi and appetizers. The variety, quality, and relatively low price of the sushi was wonderful. We enjoyed every bite of it! My favorite was the spicy tuna roll as it had a smooth flavor with a little kick and just the right texture. The freshness and authentic style of all of the sushi made it some of the best I've had in Salt Lake. For appetizers we ordered Gyoza and Age (Japanese style fried chicken pieces). The Age seemed rather expensive for an appetizer, but turned out to be served in a big heap on a large plate over the top of tempura vegetables with orange halves on the side. There was easily enough to feed all five of us and so it turned out to be a surprisingly good value. In fact the Age tasted very authentic and reminded me of the Kara Age I often ordered at restaurants in Japan. I plan on returning to this restaurant many times in the future. As I found out later we were very lucky to be seated arriving on a Friday night at the spur of the moment. As such I would also recommend making reservations before going.
Pros: Authentic food and atmosphere, Delicious Sushi at a very reasonable price, Good service
Cons: Some entres seemed a little pricy, Parking lot is a bit too small to acomodate so many customers

The "Meal Price" rating needs to be adjusted to reflect "$$$." Trust me if you want sushi there are better places that are a lot cheaper!
Pros: Nice ambience
Cons: Prices and Service

Put this Restaurant on your “Must Try List” My recommendations include: Ebi (Shrimp) Tempura, Chicken Teriyaki and Gyoza. Ginger Ice Cream is a real treat. My wife loves their California Roll. I think you will find they have the best Sushi and Sashimi in town. I have been going here for almost 20 years and literally hundreds of times and I have never had a bad meal. Reservations are a good idea especially on Friday nights. Lunch is less expensive than dinner and a great treat.

Try their nabeyaki. It is the best. Their ice cream is pretty good too. Great interior and friendly service.

Traditional Japanese, seriously great food and great servce. Now for the only two downsides: Your portions will be much larger if you eat there than if you order it to go, though the price remains the same either way. Also, The prices are higher here than at other Japanese resturants. If you don't mind the higher prices, this is a great resturant for traditional Japanese.
